Welcome

I’ve made my creative living playing Jazz, Blues, Latin, Brazilian and Soul music for the past twenty five years. My performances range from playing solo piano to large ensembles. I perform often with my trio and I freelance quite a bit in the trio, quartet, and quintet settings. I have accompanied and encouraged many Jazz, Blues and Cabaret vocalists over the years. I have developed a wide set of skills and enjoy the variety of performance opportunities that often come my way.

I have shared the stage or recording studio with James Montgomery, Johnny Adams,  Jimmy Giuffre, Luciana Souza, Duke Robillard, actor/singer Jim Belushi, Tanya Donelly, Michelle Willson, Vinx, George Russell, ,The Holms Brothers, Claudio Ragazzi, David LaFlamme, The Part Time Lovers, Van Walls, Bob Moses, Alex Alvear, Thomas, Hebb, John Calloway, Benny Sharoni, Aquilles Baez, John Ramsay, Bruce Gerts, John Lockwood, Ana Norgaard, Ted Casher,  Bob Gullotti, Gifrants, Mike Duke, Vince Lateano, Chris Amberger, Al Molina, Akira Tana, Art Lewis, Cliff Hugo, Kendrick Freeman, Rob Roth, Michael Aragon, George Marsh, Jeff Oster, James Moseley, Shea Breaux Wells. He has performed throughout the US, Brazil and Europe.

I am currently available for performances, tours, recording projects, film scoring, clinics, private instruction, as well as private and corporate events.
